From this number, 280 households and six coastal villages with tourist attractions were selected as a sample using the Cochran's formula and quota sampling method. To answer the research questions, the Exploratory Exponential Coherence Test and the Quality Performance Development (QFD) model were used. The research findings indicate that among the eight factors of local culture and art, creative development, local resources and performance, geographical factor, force Humanity, expertise and knowledge, characteristics of integration and management and maintenance, four factors: local resources and economic performance, culture and art, geography and manpower, are the most important factors in the development of independent rural landscape in Chabahar city. The results of QFD model and communication matrix showed that the above factors were most associated with maintaining environmental quality, reducing environmental vulnerability, mobilizing the local economy and creating rural employment. Also, through interviews with local people and the results of the QFD model, five strategies for developing an independent landscape and rural tourism were developed according to the requirements and indicators used, which are: training of specialized manpower, strengthening the participation of villagers in tourism activities.
